Mezcla de memorias y ficción, Sangre en el ojo nos adentra en la mente de una escritora chilena que acaba de perder la vista en un país que no es el suyo. Esta es la historia de una ceguera de recuperación incierta vivida entre Nueva York y Santiago de Chile, pero también la crónica de una relación amorosa que pone en entredicho, ante esta situación límite, la incondicionalidad del amor. Sangre en el ojo es la realización triunfal de una maravillosa visión artística, una novela tan negra y amarga y sangrienta (y hermosa) como su metáfora central. Es una novela difícil de describir. Pero sabes que es grandiosa cuando la lees. The Nation Una novela de genio y de perturbadora inteligencia. Enrique Vila-Matas Nueva York y su ciudad natal, Santiago, son descritos en una prosa que combina las sensaciones y los recuerdos, la furia y el miedo. La historia revela sus verdades a través de la descripción de lo inmediato: viscoso, repulsivo, y hermoso. The New Yorker Lina Meruane, cuya prosa se resiste a los usos heredados, es una escritora inteligente, autocrítica, que sabe adelantarse a objeciones [...]. Me quito el sombrero ante ella. Marta Sanz
